(Albany: State University of New York Press, 2007).

Law without Nations? See also Eric A. Posner, The Perils of Global Legalism (Chicago: Chicago University Press,
2009).
22 The dilemma is that hegemony may be put at the service of creating an open and rulebased order but hegemony
is itself not democratic. Even when infused with liberal and consent-based relationships, disparities in power remain.
In this sense, as Lea Brilmayer argues, hegemony is, even if organized around democratic polities, “quintessentially
autocratic.” Lea Brilmayer, American Hegemony: Political Morality in a One-Superpower World (New Haven, CT:
Yale University Press, 1994).

states, see Stephen Krasner, “Sharing Sovereignty: New Institutions for Collapsed and Failing States,” International
Security 29, no. 2 (Fall 2005), 85-120; James Fearon and David D. Laitin, “Neotrusteeship and the Problem of Weak
States,” International Security 28, no. 4 (2004), 5-43; and Robert O. Keohane, “Political Authority after Interven-

and Stephen John Stedman, Power and Responsibility: Building International Order in an Era of Transnational
Threats (Washington, DC: Brookings Institution Press, 2009).
25 On the evolving norms of “deviance” in international relations, see Miroslav Nincic, Renegade Regimes: Con-
fronting Deviant Behavior in World Politics (New York: Columbia University Press, 2007).
26 On the problem of rising states and the reform of global institutions, see G. John Ikenberry and Thomas Wright,
Rising States and International Institutions (New York: Century Foundation, 2008).
27 There is a large literature that explores the problems of legitimacy and the use of force. For the classic explor-
ation of these issues, see Inis L. Claude, Power and International Relations (New York: Random House, 1966).
28 Several proposals for a new grouping of democracies have been advanced. See Ikenberry and Slaughter, For-
ging a World of Liberty under Law (Princeton, NJ: Princeton Project on National Security, 2006); and Ivo Daalder
and James Lindsay, “Democracies of the World Unite,” American Interest 2, no. 3 (January-February 2007). Gen-
erally speaking, these proposals for a new democracy grouping are aimed at providing support for the reform of
the United Nations and, in the absence of U.N. reform and action, they are to provide supplemental authority for
international action. A proposal has also been advanced for a League of Democracies, which seeks to organize the
democracies for sustained geopolitical struggle with nondemocracies. See Robert Kagan, “The Case for a League of
Democracies,” Financial Times , 13 May 2008.
